What is the difference between a real estate agent and a broker?

There are key differences between a real estate agent and a broker. A broker is typically an owner of a firm or franchise, and these professionals handle such tasks as setting up earnest-money accounts and approving final contracts. Agents are employed by brokers, and they split their commissions with these professionals. Relative to agents, brokers typically have to deal with more exams and a larger course load to obtain licensing.

How can someone become a real estate agent?

To become a real estate agent, you'll need to prepare for and pass a licensing exam. Pre-license education hours may be required, and the exact amount varies from state to state. Once you've passed the exam, the next step is to connect with a real estate broker. Agents act on behalf of a broker, and are not allowed to handle real estate transactions independently. The broker will assist in completing the final paperwork that will allow you to manage real estate transactions in your state. Some states require a broker to sponsor an agent prior to the agent's licensing exam.

My friends warned me about this manager named Marilyn but since we went to high school together I decided to trust her. To make a long story short: My application was past but she declined it after promising my caseworker to have a 4 bedroom available for me on Dec 1 2015. Since I'm using my HUD GRANT, it was a process, she gave me back a deposit I couldn't cash bc it was written to Lake Caroline, she wanted to put me in the house she wanted, not the house I wanted or HUD rules. We have no deposit receipt zeroing our, no home, lost time, no success. She tried to hide her hands by deleting me off her fb & not returning my calls. I just want my deposit or else give me my 4 bedroom house according to law. She belittled me & judged bc I used HUD & the next person didnt. I'm sick w Lupus, I'm way to tired to fight. If someone can take this to management-tri-star feel free!! Oan,She declined my app after my app past bc she didn't wanna deal w HUD no longer although she warned me that it was gonna take a while...but i still dud everthing they said & waited. She didn't care the children she's hurting. She denied my application before 60days Tuh smh. Bad ethical dealings, she judged against HUD GRANT for cash, according to her phone call to deny my application, after I paid all that money, for someone who had cash upfront. He wasn't even on the waiting list. Lake Charles can't support new Sasol workers. They are not on the list smh.

Pam Harris was extremely helpful in assisting me locate a great piece of property in a great location for a reasonable price. She listened to my concerns and goals and directed me to exactly what I needed. Flavin Realty and Pam Harris were extremely professional throughout the entire process of locating and purchasing my property in Lake Charles and I highly recommend Pam to anyone looking to purchase property in the Lake Area.

Moving into the Lake area from out-of-state put us in the position of needing someone who really knows the area. Pam Harris was fabulous at listening to our wants and needs; she zeroed in on exactly what and where we needed to look. I can't say enough about how Flavin's entire staff was there to help us. I highly recommend Pam Harris and Flavin Realty.

Randy with Rhino Rhenovators is detail oriented and has good knowledge about historic architecture and ideas. He's usually fair and honest unless a client is difficult. In that case, he usually pulls off the job and just asks for payment for the work he's done. Not the full amount. I highly recommend them.

We purchased our brand new home in January of 2013 for $203,000 built by Rhino Rhenovators and it has been a nightmare since we've owned it. All of our hardwood floors are buckling and separating, our porches are warping and now hold water, and our driveway that was completed after we paid for the house is a multi-colored patchwork of a job and looks terrible. The driveway was not even finished until 6 months after the contract stated deadline. These are only a few of the dozens of problems that we've had with the house. Rhino Rhenovators has not honored the new home warranty or our contract, and we've been forced to hire a lawyer to resolve this matter. I wish we would have never purchased this house.
